Adding an IDCS Instance

After completing the necessary configurations in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, add or register the IDCS instance in Oracle CASB Cloud Service.

Prerequisites: Complete the steps in Preparing IDCS.

Note:

  • Only IDCS administrator users should register an IDCS instance with Oracle CASB Cloud Service.

  • If you use more than one IDCS application to provide users with single sign-on (SSO) login to other applications, you must register an IDCS instance in Oracle CASB Cloud Service for each IDCS application that is used.

  • You can only register Oracle Cloud Infrastructure in monitor-only mode.

  1. Select Applications from the Navigation menu. If the Navigation Menu is not displayed, click the Navigation Menu icon Image of the Navigation Menu icon. to display it.
  2. Click Add/Modify App.
  3. In the Select an app type page, click the Oracle Identity Cloud Service icon, and then click Next.
  4. In the Select an instance page, enter a unique name for your application instance.

    Any existing names appear below the name field.

    Note:

    Although this name does not have to match the Name defined for the IDCS SSO application, it is recommended that you use that name here, or a similar name that you can easily identify as referring to that application.

  5. Click Next.
  6. On the Enter credentials page, where you enter three of the four values that you recorded in Preparing IDCS:
    • Customer Login URL — the first part of the IDCS console URL that you were logged into when you recorded the IDCS SSO application information in Preparing IDCS.

    • Client ID — the Client ID value that you recorded from the IDCS SSO application information in Preparing IDCS.

    • Client Secret — the Client Secret value that you recorded from the IDCS SSO application information in Preparing IDCS.

  7. Click Test Credentials.
  8. When you see the “Credentials are valid” message, click Next.
  9. On the Success page, click Done.

When the registration process is complete, your application instance appears on the Applications page, and the IDCS SSO application is available to be connected to the applications that Oracle CASB Cloud Service monitors, for which that IDCS application is used to log in.
